اللؤلؤ المكنون في تفسير جزء عم يتساءلون

al-Lu'lu' al-Maknun fi Tafsir Juz' 'Amma Yatasa'alun

A concise contemporary work of Qurʾānic commentary by Dr. ʿĀʾiḍ ibn ʿAbd Allāh al-Qarnī, devoted to a selection of sūrahs from the final part of the Qurʾān. Rather than commenting on the entirety of Juzʾ ʿAmma, the book treats eight sūrahs: al-Nabaʾ, al-ʿAṣr, al-Takāthur, al-Kāfirūn, al-Naṣr, al-Masad, al-Falaq and al-Nās.

The work offers an accessible, thematic explanation of these sūrahs, moving beyond a simple gloss of individual words to bring out their broader meanings and guidance. Its treatment is directed towards helping the general reader understand and reflect upon familiar passages of the Qurʾān in a clear and approachable manner.

Its selection encompasses several of the Qurʾān’s central themes: resurrection and the Hereafter, the fleeting nature of worldly rivalry, sincerity of worship and disavowal of false worship, the victory of Islam, and seeking Allah’s protection from outward and inward evils. The compact format makes it particularly suitable for readers seeking an introductory tafsīr and a more reflective understanding of frequently recited sūrahs.
